As part of the gradual installation of new vending machines at the University of Trieste, the first appointments have been scheduled for the replacement of the electronic keys currently in use and for the purchase of the new Tags compatible with the updated system.

At the Gorizia campus, replacements and purchases can be made on the following dates:

• Wednesday, 3 September 2025, from 10:00 to 13:00
• Thursday, 25 September 2025, from 10:00 to 13:00

Additional appointments will be scheduled in the coming months and communicated through specific announcements.

The new vending machines will accept the following payment methods:

• Coins, with change available in case the inserted amount exceeds the purchase price;
• Coven App, for smartphone-based payments;
• Tags, replacing the previous electronic keys.

Please note that the current electronic keys will no longer be compatible with the new machines and must be replaced.

The refundable deposit for each returned key will be €5.00 for users at the Gorizia campus and €3.00 for users at the Trieste campuses, based on the original amount paid. The new Tag requires a deposit of €5.00. Therefore, users at the Trieste campuses will need to pay an additional €2.00 when replacing their key with a Tag.
